they speed up chemical reactions
The main function of the enzymes in the human body is to activate metabolic processes. These processes are what sustains the human life.
For enzymes in the human body to function, they must be at a certain temperature. About 37degrees Celsius and 98.6 degrees fahrenheit. If it is any greater, the enzymes will denature. any lower, and they won't be able to function. So, in general, human body temp. is pretty constant.
Yes, bacterial enzymes are different from human enzymes in terms of structure, function, and specificity. Bacterial enzymes may have evolved to function optimally in the bacterial cell environment and may catalyze reactions specific to bacterial metabolism. This is why bacterial enzymes are often used in industrial applications where their unique properties can be harnessed for various processes.
The optimal temperature of enzymes in humans is about 37c, the same as the human body's temperature. However, some enzymes work at higher temperatures than 37 but not very high because higher temperatures denatures (destroy) the enzymes.
Proteins are essential for various functions in the human body, including building and repairing tissues, supporting immune function, and serving as enzymes for chemical reactions.
Coenzymes act as helpers to enzymes in the human body by assisting in the chemical reactions that enzymes catalyze. They help enzymes function properly and efficiently by transferring chemical groups or electrons between molecules.
Each minerals has their own functions, but the general function is that minerals are co-factors of enzymes.

Co-enzymes in respiration assist in various metabolic processes by carrying chemical groups or electrons between enzymes. They enhance the efficiency of reactions and help enzymes function properly. Key co-enzymes in respiration include NAD+ and FAD.
No, saliva's function is to digest carbohydrates through it's containing the enzyme amylase.
Proteins in the human body have various functions, including building and repairing tissues, supporting immune function, acting as enzymes for chemical reactions, and serving as hormones for communication between cells.
Some enzyme function only in specific conditions, they are activated only in suitable environment. some work only in neutral environment. all ptyalin in saliva works only in the mouth which has a pH of 6-8 but when food is in the stomach wherein it's acidic, ptyalin action stops. enzymes don't function below with freezing point destroyed by too much heat. each organs has a specific temp called optimum temperature. in the human beings, enzymes can't function unless certain vitamins are present/ the right amount of vitamins will give maximum use of vitamins as well as enzymes.
